DATIN NG WEE CHIN's - Kechara

Part of the
Big Family

Ng Wee Chin is one of Kechara’s most loved and respected
members for her unwavering dedication to H.E. Tsem Tulku
Rinpoche and passionate, selfless support of Kechara.

Honorary Liaison Datin Ng Wee Chin, who is the immediate past president of Kechara House
and member of the Kechara World Peace Centre (KWPC) Executive Committee, has played
a vital role in the explosive growth of the Kechara organisation. Quiet and unassuming, her
elegant demeanour belies her achievement as a busy and successful businesswoman who also
has a full family life yet always finds time for Dharma. It wasn’t always like this.
Datin Ng had considered herself a Buddhist but prior to meeting Rinpoche, she had
little knowledge and understanding about Dharma. She confessed that she was not even
particularly inclined towards spirituality before meeting Rinpoche.
All this changed when she was introduced to Rinpoche by Liaison Henry Ooi and his wife,
Angel, on Wesak Day 2004. When she observed over time how committed Kechara members
like Liaison Henry, Liaison Ruby and Angel were, and how they unconditionally supported
Rinpoche’s work, even when they themselves did not have much resources then, Datin Ng
was inspired to help.

The Priceless Reward
“I asked myself, if they can, why can’t I? Certainly, Rinpoche had a direct and substantial
impact on me.
“When I learned and understood more about the essential meaning of Dharma, belief and
faith came along naturally. I realised that I shouldn’t waste my life away. Hence, I started to
get more involved in doing Dharma work by putting Dharma methods into practical actions.”
After attending many of Rinpoche’s talks, and finding that the down-to-earth wisdom Rinpoche
shared resonated with her and transformed her life, she committed to support Rinpoche’s
work. Her motivation was that others would gain the benefits that she had received. Thus,
she became one of Rinpoche’s largest and most devoted sponsors. Not one for the limelight,
Datin has always contributed to the organisation quietly and unconditionally. Her priceless
reward has been the Dharma.
She shares, “What I like about Dharma is that if you understand Dharma correctly and act
accordingly, you’ll find much greater satisfaction and meaning in life. More so, it gives the
body and mind a sense of inner peace and calm.
“I support Rinpoche’s Dharma work so that more people can benefit from his teachings as
